They’re fucking passive. They should directly implicate the US. Instead of “We are on unceded land of the Salish people” we should say “The US government stole this land from the Salish people and genocided their tribe”

    I think land acknowledgements should only be used as a bit, like before sex or bowling. All current situations where companies and governments are doing land acknowledgments should, at the very least, be a check for reparations and ideally some form of reform to integrate indigenous leadership into positions of power.
